Aim of study: To evaluate which vegetable lipid source promotes better growth performance, whole-body composition and fatty acid profile for juvenile giant trahira (Hoplias lacerdae).
 Area Fish Nutrition Laboratory the University Viçosa (UFV), MG, Brazil.
 Material methods: A 50-day feed trial with four treatments, consisting diets containing different sources (canola, linseed, soybe...

eggs l A preliminary study showed that maximum enrichment of egg lipid with omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCPUFA) had not occurred after about 5 days on dietary oil regimens. When cod liver oil, canola oil or linseed oil was added at 7% to layer diets for 12 weeks, production parameters were usually better than on the commercial layer diet; e g g w e i g h t was normally higher on the oi...

BACKGROUND Burns are among the most prevalent injuries in humans with high cost in health care and heavy prolonged or permanent physical, psychological and social consequences. Commercial antimicrobial creams and dressing agents are unsuccessful in healing deep burn wounds. MATERIALS AND METHODS A study was conducted to assess the impact of crude linseed oil (LSO) topical application on burn ...

A new disposable radio-frequency identification (RFID) sensor for detecting oxygen in packages with a protective atmosphere is presented. For safety reasons and system costs in consumer packages, no battery or energy harvesting devices can be used. Each part of a package, especially in food packaging, must be completely safe even if it is swallowed. Several materials have been investigated that...

Oil content, fatty acid composition and the distribution of vitamin-E-active compounds of selected Turkish seeds that are typically by-products of the food processing industries (linseed, apricot, pear, fennel, peanut, apple, cotton, quince and chufa), were determined. The oil content of the samples ranged from 16.9 to 53.4 g/100 g. The dominating fatty acids were oleic acid (apricot seed oil, ...

I. Twelve sheep were offered a diet of hay and molassed sugar-beet pulp for 18 weeks, and from the 3rd to the 16th week the sheep were divided into four groups of three; one of each of the groups received daily 170 mg trichloroacetamide, 140 mg chloroform, 30 g linseed oil or no additive. 2. The additives had no significant effect on the apparent digestibility of the dry matter, organic matter,...

Eighteen varieties of flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) with different productive attitude (oil, fiber and intermediate) were analyzed for total phenolic content (TPC) and antioxidant activity. The TPC ranged from 4.64 to 9.40 mg caffeic acid equivalents (CAE) g-1 dry weight of linseed. TPC were statistically different among productive attitude groups and increasing in this order: oil varieties → i...

This work describes the development and characterization of mechanical flexible epoxy resins based on epoxidized vegetable oils (EVO) sebacic acid. Different oil types (linseed oil, hempseed soybean oil) with varying equivalent weight (EEW) were used. Formulation processing parameters systematically optimized by differential scanning calorimetry Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. The effe...

due to importance of nitrogen on the agronomic traits of linseed oil, a factorial experiment was conducted in randomized complete block design with three replications at the field research station of faculty of agriculture at shahrekord university in 2012. five different treatments of fertilizer including urea, azomin, nitroxin, supernitroplus and control (without nitrogen) as the first factor ...

the presented study shows a simple way for optimization of extrusion process, which was used for deterioration of cyanogenic glycosides – antinutritive components of linseed, with minimum damage of essential alpha-linolenic acid (ala) at the same time. extrusion of the material was done on a laboratory single screw extruder. content of hydrogen cyanide (hcn) as a measurement of cyanogenic glyco...
